Peter really like this, one of the things I always struggle with is gluing tiny etch parts and getting it to look tidy. Photo 3 is incredible.

Thanks for the feedback. I also struggle with gluing tiny parts Mark, it feels like each one required at least three attempts ?. Treehugger, if you are talking about the things on the right hand side of photo 15, these are flag lockers for signalling flags.

Yes I struggle with these small parts as well and I try and steer clear of CA wherever possible as there are alternatives

I'm watching this build with great interest, as I am hoping to make the jump from aircraft to ships in the near future. It wont be anything as ambitious as this but this build is giving me a lot of ideas. The level of detail and ingenuity with the scratch building is impressive.👍

Always thought Ship building a bit of a dark art especially with all that P.E.
Total respect to anyone who has the patience and mind set to take to that level of detail.
Really nice work Peter. 👍
